Change you view of teaching reading
How does a kid learn to read...by reading. Get your students into the Reading Zone. I was sucked into the guided reading, small groups, centers, rotations, strategies method of teaching too. However, my students just were not progressing or developing that "love of reading" that I wanted for them. Within a month of reading this book and changing my approach, almost all my students have jumped ...

What makes Lasley's tome exceptional are the steps leading from one's passion to the execution of actually living one's vision.

Finally a book on Kay Francis that answers ALL the questions!
I must admit, I didn't know a lot about Kay Francis going into this book but I had seen her in a couple of films and I went the extra mile to delve deeper into her life and career. I was glad I did! Oh, what a life! Oh, what a career! This book is the definitive reference to Kay's life, both on and off the screen. Her exciting career, her steamy sex life and the best part...much of this book ...

This is one of those iconic and timeless books. O'Hurley-Pitts writes in uniquely clear, compelling and persuasive manner. The Passionate Steward is suitable for individual reading; a parish training and education manual; ...

Inspired Brilliance
Passionate Gardening, specifically the photos and text contributed by Lauren Springer, is the best single source of inspiration for gardeners in the Rocky Mountain states. Though Lauren's solo work, Undaunted Garden, is perhaps more comprehensive and detailed, Passionate Gardening has dazzling photos of her current garden and is a blueprint for a spectacular success in difficult climates. I own ...

More than an inspiration
First, let me comment on the fantastic cover. The bright colors and sharp design alone kept me returning to the content. :) There is nothing complicated about this book. It's a simple read -- Dr. Jeremiah's style is casual and encouraging, not at all intimidating as you might think a book written by a Bible scholar would be. It is practical and down-to-earth, but also exciting and stimulating. ...
Passionate Minds: Women Rewriting the World

Claudia Roth Pierpont
Turtleback Books Distributed by Demco Media

even better than in the new yorker
I read all these pieces when they first appeared, and couldn't wait to read them all again. All are revised, and several are expanded significantly. Pierpont has a way of combining "life," "works" and "social context" so that they all speak effortlessly of one another. If all critics had her perceptiveness, sympathy and wit, arguments would never have sprung up about what is and isn't ...

Frans Masereel
Dover Publications Inc.
, 1972
A beautiful biography --
-- or is it? Masereel's remarkable little book declines to explain itself. These 165 expressive woodcuts present snapshots from the life of one man, or so we assume. He's not all that special - he's not a great hero, leader, or lover, though he's each at one point or another. He doesn't rise above or sink below anyone else, except in the usual ways. As with Copland's "Fanfare for the Common ...

You won't be able to put it down!

Other sensuous recipes include White Russian Parfait Cake, Tamale Pie, Rice Pudding, Stay-in-Bed ...

Wonderful gift
I bought this cookbook on a caterer's recommendation as a high school gift for a young man who is living with my family and hopes to become a chef. It was perfecto! I'm grateful he leaves it in my kitchen so I can make use of it, too. I've been cooking for 40 years, but I learned many new tricks and absorbed into my DNA several new recipes from just leafing thru these pages while sipping a latte ...
